I just wanted to let you know I’ve been on the search for a good read. Something I can really sink my teeth into and get a good belly laugh from. So, I’ve swapped a traditional book for something a little bit different. Something like what your bestie would buy you on your birthday.
Novelty books have been around for ages. I remember going into Urban Outfitters just for the table full of quirky books. They’d be laugh out loud funny as well as look STUN-ING on a coffee table or shelf. Thankfully for technology, instead of travelling all the way to your closest Urban Outfitters, you can just order one of these bad boys to your doorstep. What’s more, you don’t have to settle for a book that marginally links to what you’re after, as there are thousands of options online.
YES, we’ve all seen that you can find novelty books on everything from avocados to llamas and unicorns. Did you know that you can also find these for your favourite celebrities? And, they don't have to be real-life people. It can be characters or instafamous pets! If you’re obsessed with a TV series or music star, you’ll probably be able to find some sort of merchandise that's dedicated to them. Think picture book, cookbook or a fun colouring book. To inspire you to ditch the novel (just this once), here are some of my favourite celebrity novelty books.
